Call Forward to external phone number plus extension.

My customer wants to call forward to an external number including the extension number.

I activated CLS = CFXA and key 04 cfw 20.

It works fine with only the external number eg: 9450-xxx-xxxx.

Is it possible to add the extension number so the remote voicemail answering the call
can transfer the call automatically?
What would be the procedure?


Thanks,
 
I'm not sure if it is possible, but there are a number of factors to consider first.

Does your line provider allow you to put in a different published number against a CLID entry?.

When the outgoing call is made, does it dial out from one of your DID trunks?.

Against your sets SCR or DN key, have you got a CLID table entry?.

Hello Firebird,

The lines are T1 PRI, I don't know about the CLID.

What I am trying to do actually is:

Call forward extension of my customer to extension 2345 at external phone number 450-xxx-xxxx.

Thanks,
Robert
 
Not possible going out a PRI. On a PRI, all digits are collect and sent at once.
